Rifle Scopes So, Now I Need A Scope. Help Me Choose.

[cnl390]

If my second post turns out as productive as my first I will be good to go.
OK, after processing all the info derived from my first post I have decided what I want and need your help.
The scope will be mounted on AR15 .300 AAC Blackout which will be used on hogs and other unsuspecting game out to 300 yds.
The scope I hope to find will be smaller so as not to overpower my 14.7' barrel, MOA/MOA, Zero stop, dialing style turrets, reticle that can be used for holdover & illuminated. Priced up to $1500.
So now it is your turn to talk me into something.
Thanks

go with a nightforce nxs 3-15 in ffp!!

I was gonna say Nightforce 2.5-10, but with those features it'll be a bit over $1,500.


ETA: Where can one get a NF 3-15 FFP for $1.5K? All the ones I've seen have been significantly higher than that.

PSOP, since 300AAC, AKA stollen 300 whisper, is balistically similar to 7.62x39....

I wouldn't spend much on a optic for such a poor performing cartridge.

That's the irony of it. With the sub sonic round it drops so quickly I need a scope I can depend on for hold over or dialing in.

SS or Vortex 1-6x FFP
Another option is the Weaver 1-5x

My ACOG works pretty well. I use it for the same thing your talking about. Hogs and coyotes. The 4x powers isnt too much for close encounters and I can still reach out and touch them.

What about that new acog that just came out specifically for the 300black out.

I really like my Horus HDMR. 3-21x, FFP, useful reticle. Only downside is it's not illuminated. Horus does make some illuminated scopes in that price range.

That should work if you don't plan on using the acog on any other calibers.
